Great rocket. My first level 1 and one great flyer! I just recently put it on a 3″ x 48″ streamer and it works great and doesn’t float away like it used to. My streamer is a DANGER barrier from Home Depot. Works great and looks cool! 👍

It’s a great rocket and flies very well! I use a C6-5 engine in it and it goes out of sight!

Handsome rocket
The Crossfire looks great, is easy to assemble, and flies. It’s first flight was with a B engine and it drifted two soccer field widths away, so the next flight was with a C engine and it drifted three and a half soccer fields. I’m not sure I’ll put a C engine in it if I want to see it again, but due to temptation to do so I bought another.

Small but fun
I got this with the Amazon launch kit like others. It is pretty easy to build. After I applied the decals, I used the remaining outlines of the images to trim out the other fin.
Warning – as others have stated, do not use even a B6 unless you have a large recovery area. This thing is light weight and flies high! This actually makes it very versatile. There are lots of engine options to suit your launch site and conditions.
I cut a small hole in the top of the parachute so it doesn’t drift as far. It could probably use a smaller parachute even a streamer.

Cool one stage
This rocket is a very good high flyer. My only complaint is that I’d prefer water slide decals over the stickers that are used.

Definitely a rocket
I flew this in a massive field. C6 vanished in clouds. Low wind flew straight rediculous flight ability. Recommend small engines unless you wanna see it go into orbit if that’s the case c6 be my guest sounds like fun wanna try?

Gotta get this one!
This is a must have rocket! It’s pointy nose, added tail cone, and fin tabs add so much character! Get it! Build it! Fly it!
